Suhyb Salama is Associate Professor of Remote Sensing of Water Quality and Water Resources Management at the Department of Water Resources, Faculty of Geo-information Science and Earth Observation (ITC), University of Twente, the Netherlands. His research integrates radiative-transfer physics, machine-learning analytics and multi-sensor satellite data to unravel hydrological and water-quality processes from micro-scale spectroscopy to meso-scale land–atmosphere interactions, directly supporting UN Sustainable Development Goals 6 and 14. Education: PhD in Civil Engineering, Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Belgium (2003) MSc in Hydraulic Engineering (magna cum laude), KU Leuven (1999) BSc in Civil Engineering, Damascus University, Syria (1993) Research interests: Salama’s scholarly work spans remote sensing of biogeophysical variables, spatiotemporal modelling of suspended sediments and algal blooms, radiative-transfer theory across visible to microwave domains, development of smartphone-based water-quality apps, detection of floating plastic litter, and assessment of groundwater–vegetation feedbacks. He combines optical, thermal and microwave observations with physical and data-driven models to deliver actionable information on water scarcity, pollution extremes and climate-change impacts. Recent publication trends (2023-2025): His latest articles focus on machine-learning quantification of estuarine sediment variability, advanced detection of floating plastics, smartphone calibration for citizen-based water-quality monitoring, spectral-textural mining mapping, and analytical derivation of water-clarity time series from Sentinel-2 imagery. Collectively these works push toward operational, open-source solutions for high-frequency, basin-scale water-quality monitoring and UN SDG reporting. Editorial & professional service: Salama serves as topical editor for the journal Remote Sensing (2020-2024) and has chaired sessions on long-term earth-observation of suspended particulate matter. He actively collaborates across Europe, Africa and Asia on projects that merge remote sensing, hydrodynamic modelling and capacity development. Teaching & capacity building: He teaches MSc courses on optical and microwave remote sensing for water resources, supervises MSc and PhD research, and champions problem-based learning that equips students with enterprising skills to tackle complex water and climate challenges.

Jörg Kaduk serves as an Associate Professor at the University of Leicester within the School of Geography, Geology and the Environment. His research focuses on critical environmental systems with particular emphasis on peatland ecosystems, carbon cycling, and climate change impacts. His primary research interests span peatland ecology, carbon cycle modeling, remote sensing applications, climate change impacts on ecosystems, forest fire dynamics, and vegetation phenology. Kaduk's work integrates field measurements with advanced modeling techniques to understand biogeochemical processes across diverse landscapes from tropical forests to boreal regions. Analysis of his 15 most recent publications reveals a strong focus on peatland carbon dynamics under climate change and anthropogenic pressures, with significant contributions to understanding greenhouse gas emissions from agricultural peatlands. His research employs cutting-edge remote sensing methodologies including multi-frequency SAR, Landsat imagery, and machine learning algorithms for environmental monitoring, particularly in pollution impact assessment in regions like the Niger Delta. Kaduk actively collaborates with international research teams across multiple continents, as evidenced by his co-authorship on studies spanning Malaysia, Siberia, West Africa, and the UK. His work bridges fundamental ecological understanding with practical applications for climate mitigation and sustainable land management.
